Care to try out Dragon Age II? This week, you can.

Every Tuesday, Sony drops a bunch of new stuff onto the PlayStation Network. Those with a PlayStation 3 or PSP can download this new goodness, which ranges from PSN games to movies, themes and more. While the Official PlayStation Blog outlines these updates in full each week, we thought we'd help truncate the good news into something more digestible.

PSN Games

There are three new games this week. None of these releases are especially riveting, though gamers who trekked through the first two Alien Breed games will be happy to know that the third title is now available.

If you're looking for some RPG goodness on your PlayStation Portable, look no further. There's a new game that's been added to the roster of downloadable PSP titles that's really two games in one.

Ys I & II Chronicles ($24.99)

PlayStation Minis

There are four new PlayStation Minis this week. As usual, they are way too expensive.

Bloons TD ($4.99)

Denki Blocks! ($3.99)

Paper Wars: Cannon Fodder ($4.99)

Twin Blades ($3.99)

PlayStation Plus

There doesn't appear to be any new perks for PlayStation Plus subscribers this week, though recent freebies are still in effect. So if you haven't picked up Sackboy's Prehistoric Moves, Stacking or Digger HD for free, you're still eligible to do so.

PSone Classics

The last few weeks, we've been asking "where's Xenogears?" Well, it's finally here. So enjoy!

Xenogears ($9.99)

DLC

There's a lot of DLC this week. The biggest DLC is no doubt for Fallout: New Vegas, since the first batch of DLC -- Dead Money -- can now be purchased. But there's a lot more than that.
